Benefits of technology

The optimized resin enables superior thermal imprint characteristics and increased productivity by facilitating pattern transfer and mold release at reduced temperatures and pressures.

Problems solved by technology

According to the mechanical cutting, however, there is a problem such that an advanced and complex processing technique is required.
According to the pattern printing using a resist or the like, steps thereof are complicated, and there is a problem in the durability, such as peeling of a printed pattern.
An example of resins is a (meta) acrylic resin represented by polymethacrylic acid (PMMA) or a polycarbonate resin, but have a problem such that the heat resistance is low and size distortion occurs due to water absorption.
Further, controlling a balance between the fluidity and the solidification is difficult, so that it is difficult to maintain and use a minutely-transferred pattern (see, for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Laid-open Publication No. 2000-158532).

Evaluation for Imprinting on Injection Molded Body

[0068]Sample 1 was fixed on a plate which was heated to a glass transition temperature Tg−18° C. (i.e., 117° C.), a mold (pattern: line / space (L / S)=1 μm / 1 μm) which was preheated to a molding set temperature Tg+25° C. (i.e., 160° C.) was pressed against the surface of the resin substrate at a speed of 100 μm / second, and when the load sensor attached to the upper part of the mold reached 1000 N, it was held for 10 seconds by that load. Thereafter, it was cooled to Tg−18° C. (117° C.) while maintaining the displacement of the mold, and after the completion of cooling, the mold was released from the substrate at a speed of 10 μm / second. It was observed through an electronic microscope that a good pattern was transferred. The observation result is shown in table 1.

Evaluation for Imprinting on Injection Molded Body

[0070]Sample 1 was fixed on a plate which was heated to a glass transition temperature Tg−18° C. (i.e., 117° C.), a mold (pattern: L / S=1 μm / 1 μm) which was preheated to a molding set temperature Tg+35° C. (i.e., 170° C.) was pressed against the surface of the resin substrate at a speed of 100 μm / second, and when the load sensor attached to the upper part of the mold reached 350 N, it was held for 10 seconds by that load. Thereafter, it was cooled to Tg−18° C. (117° C.) while maintaining the displacement of the mold, and after the completion of cooling, the mold was released from the substrate at a speed of 10 μm / second. It was observed through an electronic microscope that a good pattern was transferred. The observation result is shown in table 1 and table 3.

Abstract

A resin for thermal imprint include a cyclic-olefin-based thermoplastic resin that contains at least one of skeletons represented by the following chemical equation 1 or the following chemical equation 2 in a main chain. The glass transition temperature Tg (° C.) and the value ([M]) of MFR at 260° C. satisfy the following equation 1, and [M]>10. The thermal imprint characteristics (transferability, mold release characteristic, and the like) are superior and the productivity (throughput) is improved.Tg(° C.)<219×log [M]−104  [Equation 1]
